If you have a rectangle and you want to cut a slice of 40 px from the bottom edge. Following code will solve your problem. In the output,you will get dimension of your slice rectangle as well as reminder rectangle. Note: You can change the pixel amount (40 px) of your slice to any valid number of pixel and also change the edge to either of CGRectMinXEdge,CGRectMaxXEdge,CGRectMinYEdge,CGRectMaxYEdge
CGRect b=CGRectMake(40, 50, 240, 150);
CGRect remainder, slice;
CGRectDivide(b, &slice, &remainder, 40, CGRectMaxYEdge);
NSLog(@"(%.0f,%.0f,%.0f,%.0f)",CGRectGetMinX(remainder),CGRectGetMinY(remainder),CGRectGetWidth(remainder),CGRectGetHeight(remainder));
//It will give output= (40,50,240,110)
//It will give output= (40,50,240,110)
NSLog(@"(%.0f,%.0f,%.0f,%.0f)",CGRectGetMinX(slice),CGRectGetMinY(slice),CGRectGetWidth(slice),CGRectGetHeight(slice));
//It will give output=(40,160,240,40)
